Frédéric, Adrienne and Jérémie – together with their children — celebrate the 75th birthday of their mother, Hélène. A few months later, she dies. The siblings go to their mother’s house, which has become a small museum, to recover little by little the objects that shaped their childhood and to face a past that no longer seems to belong to them. This is a movie with enormous lyrical power.
